the question is whats the time it takes to produce a family from a child ...that is the missing parameter to determine the answer.as there are child bearing girls as young as 14 in Africa and Asia and on the other hands there are woman who wait just before pre-meno cycle to catch the last bus..oops child.

Well then we have to go country by country.

Lets take one family from all the countries in the world and do the calculation.

Whichever coutry closest to the actual numbers now, maybe is the one that started it all?
